Synopsis for "The Silent Treatment"

The Blackhawk Squadron arrived in Kraait, a small village known to be a Nazi relay station, where they were ambushed by another Merson-designed giant metal worm. This time grenades to the undercarriage failed to disable the improved model. In a second encounter, the Blackhawks lured the machine over a cliff.

Meanwhile on Blackhawk Island, Chuck developed a suspicion about Theodore R Gaynor, disguised himself as a Nazi general, flew to Marrakesh, did some espionage, changed his clothes, and flew to Kraait, all in the same day. Chuck's report, soon corroborated by Gaynor's actions, revealed Gaynor to be a prisoner-murdering, civilian-killing, war-criminal lunatic; and Gaynor was summarily dismissed from the squadron. He later died at Sevastopol.
